Some of our listeners – especially the lucky ones who got hold of our postcards – have asked us about the beautiful illustration accompanying Spatial Delight. What exactly does the colourful image depict? How does it connect to Doreen Massey’s work? And, last but not least, who made it? This bonus episode features a conversation between host Adèle Martin and Bose Sarmiento, the artist who designed the illustrations for Spatial Delight. Bose discusses the main themes and symbols in her work, and how they connect to Massey’s work, revealing the process behind her aesthetic choices.
